Do THIS to Stop Spiraling (7 Steps to Instantly Break the Cycle of Negative Thoughts)

What’s been on your mind today?

Do you ever catch yourself spiraling with negative thoughts?

Today, Jay dives into the everyday negative thoughts we all wrestle with—and how we can stop letting them control us. Whether it's replaying awkward moments, spiraling into self-doubt, or feeling stuck in patterns of fear and criticism, negativity can quietly undermine our confidence and cloud our perspective. But what if those thoughts were just noise—and you didn’t have to carry them anymore?

In this episode, Jay shares seven transformative steps to help you build a healthier, more resilient relationship with your mind. Rooted in both spiritual insight and modern science, Jay walks you through powerful shifts—like recognizing your thoughts without letting them define you, challenging your inner critic with evidence, and reframing your day-to-day experiences with intention. With the clarity of a teacher and the care of a friend, Jay helps you see that awareness is not just the first step—it’s your greatest protection.

In this episode, you'll learn:

How to Stop Believing Every Negative Thought

How to Challenge Thoughts That Aren’t True

How to Use Mindfulness to Calm Mental Overload

How to Build a Mental Shield Against Criticism and Stress

We can’t always stop negative thoughts from showing up, but we can learn to move through them with clarity, self-kindness, and strength—one thought at a time.

With Love and Gratitude,

Jay Shetty
